@Jef *******

If he is a tax resident of Thailand, he is in 99% of all cases not a tax resident of his home country. Double tax treaties are completely irrelevant. He only pays his taxes *here*.

@Oli ******

"Tax Residency" has nothing to do with actually paying taxes. It is simple the point of residence where you would be taxed if you had to pay taxes.

I am tax resident of Thailand. But have no taxable income. So: I do not pay taxes here.

And I am no longer a tax resident of Germany: so I do not file income tax declarations there.

And not that is not a theory (correct word would be hypothesis, btw): it is law, since a half a century or longer.

@Wannikea ********

But that has nothing to do with the term "tax resident". Especially as he is in most cases no longer a tax resident in his home country, when he is one in Thailand. There are only two countries as exceptions: USA and Ethopia. And one kind of silly exception, but worth noting: in many countries the amount of days to become a tax resident is 185. So technically one could for example be a ta resident in Thailand (180 days) *AND* Germany (185 days).

Ask your PDF providers to simply sent "screenshots" of each page. Then combine them.

A 10 page PDF that big makes no sense, unless it is a nested mess of nested PDFs.

Seriously, if one makes a PDF with a text editor, how can 10 pages be 3MB or more?

OHHHH ... I have an idea: just print it out!! Then photo each page and make a new PDF from it.

She signed it with her name. And as pointed out: it is in the system anyway.

Learn the prices of goods and services, just because it looks like half the price as at home, it might still be a factor 5 rip off. And keep in mind: Thailand has mostly a "no tips culture". The only wide exception is Thai massage.

Get the Bolt app, it is a car/ride sharing app. It is most of the time cheaper than Taxi, and the cars are usually new electric cars. Thai/English translation is build in, and most drivers speak at least a bit English (most taxi drivers don't).

Someone mentioned the True Money App, but most "banking apps" will do and allow to connect a foreign credit card. Except for tourist shops or super big super markets, hotels etc. you will have bad luck paying with a debit or credit card. You have to withdraw cash, or pay with a banking app via QR code scan.

Enjoy your trip ...

Unless you did already, you can extend your visa exempt for 1 month. Otherwise Brandon and John summaried all already.

Anonymous participant If you have this: "employment contract, letter from employer, business registration for the company" yes.

Anonymous participant 3 sentences what the company is doing, three sentences what you are doing for the company, and 3 or 4 copies of bank statements of received payments.

If in doubt, then ask the embassy/consulate and not on FB. They ask you to provide papers: they know what papers they want.

You probably did not point out clearly that you are employed? And they have the impression you are a free lancer/self employed ...

Work portfolios are usually asked from freelancers, not from employed workers!

Good luck!

Only provide the REQUIRED documents.
